Hi edubuntu users,
I will be providing a 1-day workshop/demonstration on using edubuntu
to community day care teachers. Two edubuntu PCs will be used to
around 8 teachers. I am assuming the teachers have very minimal
knowledge in using computers (not even windows). The approach would
be participatory & collaborative. I would like to ask this list on any
suggestions on how to go about the discussions.
I am estimating the workshop will go for about 5 hours (including
hands-on demonstration).
The focus will be on using the GUI (no CLI as much as possible)
A list of topics I would like to cover:
History-Philosophy (FSF, GNU, Linux, Ubuntu)
Using Edubuntu
* Ubuntu desktop interface (windows, workspaces, logging in and out)
* Creating users & groups
* File Management (navigation, copy, edit)
* OOo (writer, calc, impress)
* Web surfing (Firefox)
* educational games (gcompris, kde educational suite, tuxpaint)
Basic computer hardaware maintenance
Lesson planning workshop (to integrate edubuntu in the curriculum)
If you have any suggestions please give some feedback. Finally, if
anybody have some standard impress presentations on any of the topics
we can use, please share.
Cheers,
Maning
